When relationship advice starts sounding suspiciously like instructions for breaking up somebody’s home, social media is bound to grab the popcorn.
Ghanaian singer Moliy has joined the growing backlash against a controversial segment on Joy Prime’s Talk Your Shhh podcast after a panelist suggested that women should consider dating married men if they happen to be “good men.”
The panelist reportedly presented married men as potential “destiny helpers,” arguing that since God is unlikely to physically appear and hand someone financial assistance, women should recognise their opportunities and take them, wedding ring included.
It was the kind of advice that may have sounded revolutionary inside the studio, but social media was far less impressed.
Moliy took to X with a brutally brief assessment of the situation. The singer declared that, in this life, there are “baddies” and there are “dummies,” leaving little doubt about which category she believed the controversial advice belonged to.
Her comments add to criticism from other public figures, including socialite Efia Odo, who have also condemned the discussion for appearing to normalise infidelity and relationships with married people.
The backlash has since reignited a broader conversation about the responsibility that comes with putting controversial relationship opinions on mainstream platforms.
After all, everyone is entitled to an opinion. But once the advice starts sounding like a recruitment drive for the side-chick department, social media will almost certainly have something to say.
And according to Moliy, that something is very simple: baddies know better than this.
